Petrobras puts nine shallow water concessions up for sale

SAO PAULO, July 4 (Reuters) - Brazil's state-run oil company
Petroleo Brasileiro SA has put up for sale the rights
to explore, develop and produce oil and natural gas from nine
shallow water concessions, according to a securities filing on
Monday.

The areas in the states of Sergipe and Ceara produced an
average 13,000 barrels of oil and natural gas per day, equal to
about 0.5 percent of the company's total output.
